I didn’t need to be begged to vote against a fascist. I’m not a narcissistic toddler who thinks elections are American Idol and that the dem must come to my door, throw themselves on my knee and polish my boots with their tongue.

You can't fight with a 47-53 minority. Maybe next time white voters will arm Democrats with a majority instead of trashing them. Math doesn't care about your feelings.

UPDATE: The Senate votes 53-47 to shoot down the Baldwin amendment to extend ACA funds for 1 year. A party-line vote with every Republican rejecting it.
An important vote in this series: Tammy Baldwin’s proposal to extend ACA expiring funds for 1 year. It’s structured as a motion to table (i.e. scrap it from the amendment tree). But it’ll show the appetite (or lack thereof) in the Senate to address this issue.
